Author Topic: Better scaling physics  (Read 1797 times)

Could there be like that giant people are slow for tiny guys or something like that and also making tiny guys jumping speed slower and stuff and tiny vehiculs are slower same for big ones

This might be very good to make scale physics better


So basically you want:

+ Blockheads with full (x y z) scales of 2(+) to have slower jumps? The bigger they are the slower their jump is?
+ Blockheads with full (x y z) scales of 1(-) to have faster jumps? The smaller they are the faster their jump is?

I mean that for people smaller then a big guy it will look like they jump slow but the prrespective of the big guys is that they jump normaly

all about prespectives

so basically you want everything to scale, such as speed.

let's say the jeep's speed is 10 crispy units
you reduce it to half it's size
now it's 5 crispy units speed

right?

pretty sure that's not even possible, but it's okay because I'm also pretty sure that's not even how it would work in real life

Ya but also when tiny people see huge people, the tiny people see them slow but the big guys are normal to their prespective.

it is very similar to the movie called epic in some parts

no, size doesn't affect that
ants don't perceive time any slower than we do
when we walk by it happens just as quickly for them as for us

Im not trying to make that realistic im trying to make it resemble abit like the movie called epic.

That would require the ability to slow down the perception of time in real life, which I don't think we have. Sorry.

Its in blockland not in rl -.-

Now that I think of it, it might be possible to a certain extent. It hurts to think about it though, and your description is kinda hard to follow.

I'm sure it's possible, but it would mean forcing everyone to have a slow timescale whenever someone turns themself small, or if they chose to become bigger, only they would have to have a slow timescale

Or it can force only the client into a timescale, which is possible already. When the client is the only one in timescale, though, he still appears slower to the server...
I can't really think of a way to do this that isn't hacky.

This seems like it needs a hacky way for this to work :/
